I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

"What makes you love, what makes you learn, what makes you happy? What makes you laugh, what makes you smile, what makes you cry?" - Sarah Jahn, "Love Learn Happy"I'm a pretty happy guy. I love laughing. I try to take care of my friends and not get on their nerves too much. They're worth a lot 2 me. Life's not always rosy, but even when it's not, I know I'm still blessed. God digs me and I appreciate that... which is an understatement. I'm glad to be here. I'm in the home stretch, diving in towards 30 and looking forward to it, 'cause the older I get, the dumber I'm not.
Some things I enjoy the most are having good friends around, enjoying people, accomplishing goals, and singing all the time! If you didn't know, I moonlight as a recording artist. Not for money so much as just because I love it and I believe God will do something special with it. I'd be pleased as punch if you listened to them and joined up there too. www.myspace.com/markchappelle is the address (Chappelle's my middle name). There's some free downloads too. Don't stop, get 'em, get 'em.
Finally, I'm a nerd, I dress nerd chic. I love wordplay and witty humor. I'm a graphic designer by trade, but I can jump into any phone booth and magically transform into a writer , pianist, or singer .
Catch a blessing... :)
Oh and by the way: NEW DISCLAIMER FOR PEOPLE WHO WANT TO ADD ME! Just a small request... if you send an add request, please drop me a message first! Whether you found me through mutual interests or mutual friends, liked one of my profile pics, or I know you already in real life, just let me know what the connection is. It'll save me time scouring through each person's page trying to figure out "ok, how do I know her? do i know her? i think i do. oh crap. she's gonna be pissed that i forgot who she is." Thanks!

Whenever I form a bond or start a relationship, I always hope it's at least semi-permanent. I guess I can get attached pretty quickly. But the reality is that all things do, one way or another, come t...
